of the invention is this that the boat quickly and easily may be built up in such a manner that a strong hull is, obtained and any possibility of leakage is diminished to a considerable extent. V The inventionis shown in ing drawing, in Which: I

Figure 1 shows a boat the accompany;

seen from the side.

'Figure'2 shows the same seen from above;

Figure 3. is a vertical cross section through the boat, and e v Figure 1s a section through the keel.

The invention consists chiefly in this. that 'he keeland the stems of the. boat are built 'up from a single piece, in that a suitable whereupon the gunwale'is arrangedin the usual Way and fastened to the stems. The planks3 forming the sides are thereafter arranged relative to the entire length of the formed, l declare, that What I claim isz' -hoat in such enianner that'theends of said' planks abut against thegunvv'ales (Figure 3) j g and arefastened to theseyin'steadiof to the stems as isthe'usualpractice. f *fa motor, is to be installed into the boat a keeL- V I Under the keel a projec'tinglistL'? may be arranged inorder to take up the wean This list may he formed so asto project considerably-at the lniddle'of the b o,at,iinorder to a prevent drift of-the same caused by Wind and 3 unfavourable current conditions.

H'aving'now particularly described and ascertained the naturefot'my said invention,

and in What manner the same isto be per-T A boat, comprising a Wooden keel having its ends bentupward to form stems integral with said keel. a gunwale'secured at its opposite ends to said stems, said keelibeing provided with shoulder-forming projections along its sides,and planks secured-at their} cpposlte ends to the gunwele, thelowermost plank at opposite sldes of the keel-being secured to "the shoulder-forming projections 1 of sa-idkeel.
